In response to FreeBSD PostgreSQL7 port and v7.0.2  ("John Daniels" <jmd526@hotmail.com>)
List pgsql-general
Hi:

Thanks, I check into that.  I have assumed, from my own reading of the
release history, that:

    1) 7.0.1 fixes some minor bugs, and
    2) 7.0.2 was released so quickly after 7.0.1 because some documentation was
left out as an oversight (which was probably already
in of 7.0.0).

Which led me to conclude that:
    1) there should be no change to the patches that make 7.0.x run with
FreeBSD
    2) there are no new files from 7.0.0 to 7.0.2

I am cc-ing pgsql-general@postgresql to see if anyone there can confirm the
above as fact.

John
